Adobe Illustrator and save the original picture as a template, and go over it again, trying to capture every tiny detail. If you're good at it, it can look like it's out of a comic book or graphic novel.

yeah it's not hard, but it takes a LONG time if you want to do it well. Sorry you caught it before my edit, it's Illustrator not in-design, I just woke up and can't think right

I took a look at what you're describing and I believe it's done with vector graphics. I'd do it in Photoshop; load up the image, posterize it to a detail level you deem necessary, then trace over with the pen tool for each highlight and shadow.

You can also posterize it in Photoshop, then load it up in Illustrator since Illustrator is vector based and has more tools for vector design.

Actually, TSL portraits were done in Photoshop, and then animated on After Effects. You can find tutorials on painting on Photoshop and Motion Graphics on AE on the web. GLHF
